It would surprise me if any type of coating you can paint on would be as
effective as putting insulation under the carpet.

Subject: Re: [Bricklin] Floor Heat Remedy?
from what I understand the heat that is reduced by that coating is because of
reflected light, not much light gets under a bricklin LOL. I may work somewhat
on radiant heat but I don't know how well it will work. There is a product out
there called lizard skin that gets good reviews in the street rod crowd, I
have never tried it though.
here is a link to alternatives I found

looks like lizardskin and the likes are micro balloons and latex paint,
microbalance are available at fiberglass supply places and latex paint is
available as left overs in your garage LOL. You could even maybe buy a quart
tinted like fiberglass color so it doesn't stand out so much or even get some
flat black.
